Also, simple views can be created by modifying a GIB information
block. These extensions can be accomplished using the Basic
Extensions Toolkit, and the GIB Editor.

packaged to distribution media for resale, and installed at a customer site
using the standard SPECTRUM installation process. By using the
SPECTRUM Extensions Integration Toolkit, a VAR developer can build a
Level I or Level II extension product that can be fully integrated into any
SPECTRUM site.

Problem 1: Attributes of an unsupported type must be created manually.
Attempts to use the MIB compiler causes the Model Type Editor to report
the attribute type is unsupported and the attribute will not be created.
Solution: Refer to Chapter 2 of the MTE User’s Guide for clarification.
Problem 2: MIB object names with a length greater than 31 characters are
truncated to a length of 31 characters in MTE MIB import. When these
truncated names duplicate a pre-existing SPECTRUM attribute name, the
names are discarded by the MTE MIB import facility.
Solution: This problem will be fixed in a future release.
